Redefining Inner-City Architecture
Featured in The Local Project and acclaimed in leading design journals, it is a bold sculptural home of rare presence, precision and prestige. Behind its bespoke façade of meticulously detailed aluminium battens, a dramatic interior unfolds in light and space. Anchored by a monumental cranked steel staircase, interiors balance stark materiality with unexpected warmth, delivering soaring volumes, refined textures and remarkable liveability.
Upstairs, a vast main suite with pitched ceilings, walk-in robe and luxury ensuite is joined by two further bedrooms, a second living room and central bathroom. Downstairs, a fourth bedroom and third bathroom complement a gallery-like living and dining domain framed by floor-to-ceiling glass and towering ceilings. The concrete kitchen island and concealed butler’s pantry are fitted with Gaggenau, Siemens and Miele appliances, marrying performance with sculptural elegance.
Every detail speaks to innovation, including polished concrete with underfloor hydronic heating, Tasmanian oak floors, ducted climate control and custom joinery, while passive solar design, double glazing, automatic blinds and photovoltaic power ensure sustainability matches style.
Outdoors, landscaped gardens, an entertainer’s deck with BBQ kitchen and a fully tiled heated pool deliver a private resort-style retreat, further enhanced by two additional upstairs terraces and an internal double garage below.
In the vibrant Westgarth pocket, just steps from High Street’s cafes, cinema and boutiques, Merri Creek trails and Northcote High zoning, this is not just a home but a landmark achievement in contemporary Australian design.
